Research direction

Use the linked Canada Post guidelines as the specification, then inspect the package's existing geocoding and reverse-geocoding entry points to find where normalization belongs. The issue does not name files, inputs, outputs, or tests, so clarify the expected function interface and add coverage for the agreed cases; done means the package exposes normalization functions that follow the cited guidelines.
